Chapter 1819 Bewitched! (Monthly Vote Requested)

The benefits of Asgard as a place of exile are self-evident. First of all, Asgard is isolated outside the earth.

In fact, the star field where Asgard is located is very empty. There is no planet for living creatures to survive except around Asgard. It is a place where no one lives, but the Asgardians live very comfortably there... I can only say that Asgard technology is really awesome!

That star field, let alone planets suitable for living creatures, actually they don’t even have a star there. It is a dark star field. But the Asgardians created a "god's domain" there that is enough for them to live.

That's right, Asgard is not a celestial body at all, but a man-made continent... That's right, Asgard is flat... It's amazing. When Kai first saw Asgard, he was very confused. How did this thing absorb the atmosphere? After all, this thing is just a floating continent, and it doesn't have enough mass to generate such a strong gravity.

But, in Asgard, everything is very normal... so normal that it is unbelievable.

Their sun and moon are both man-made.

And below Asgard, there is a deep cosmic void... This thing is a cosmic disaster. If you have to describe it, it is like the Bermuda Triangle. If you are not careful, ordinary spaceships will be sucked away and then thrown anywhere in the universe.

In short, it is a very weird place.

But it is precisely because of its weirdness that it has become an isolated island in the universe. Except for the mysterious space channel, it is very difficult to reach and leave Asgard through ordinary means.

This place is definitely the best place for a prison.

This is not Kai's nonsense, even the Asgardians themselves think so.

Didn't you see that they imprisoned many dangerous enemies in their own nests?

Secondly, the guarding ability is unbelievably strong.

The three major empires in the universe are so domineering, but none of these three empires will go to Asgard for trouble. In fact, for so many years, it has always been Asgard that beat up alien civilizations, and no alien civilization will take the initiative to provoke Asgard.

This is directly related to Asgard's own military power.

Let's not talk about Asgard's gods. This kind of super warrior who is a little too strong in the eyes of alien civilizations will make anyone tremble.

Even Asgard's conventional military force is also very fierce.

In the early years, Asgard was not as civilized as it is now. Before Odin came to power, Asgard had the custom of looting. Who made them the ancestors of the Norse pirates? These guys were not as rich as they are now in the early years, so they needed to drive their dragon-headed spacecraft to loot everywhere in the universe.

At that time, Asgard was definitely the top bully in the universe!

Although they have not committed any heinous crimes, they have plundered countless civilizations, and all of them were done by Asgard's conventional military force. Even if ordinary people feel that life is a bit difficult, they will drive dragon-headed ships to make a fortune on alien planets.

That is, after Odin came to power, Asgard directly gave up plundering and changed to conquest. At that time, the Asgardians did a lot of evil, and Odin destroyed many civilizations.

At that time, Asgard became rich and no longer needed to plunder.

Like those Western countries, they were robbers at the beginning. After plundering everywhere and getting the first pot of gold, they began to make a fortune through war, and then began to pretend to be civilized people... It seems a bit too much to say that Asgard, after all, is their friend.

But the meaning is similar.

Don't look at them now starting to talk about civilization and politeness, but they can still act like hooligans if they put these aside.

A group of people with abundant martial virtues.

Put people in there, don't even think about escaping.

The last reason is related to their civilization. Because they have money, Asgard has long learned about human rights and is very good to prisoners. At least there will never be the same thing that happened to Orm in the quicksand hell.

They can even provide personalized services. For example, as long as your requests are not excessive, Asgard is still very tolerant of prisoners, such as what you want to eat and what you want to play.

In this way, Orm will not have to worry about any psychological problems even if he is imprisoned for a long time.

…

When Arthur found Kai again, Kai was already leaning against the wall.

There is no way, don't underestimate the fighting power of a mature woman... I'm not kidding!

But Arthur could only pretend not to see it.

Fortunately, Kai recovered quickly.

Soon the two secretly left Atlantis and went directly to Bouvet Island.

The Pacific Ocean is the largest ocean in the world, and it is also the loneliest ocean... Because there is a large area in the Pacific Ocean without a piece of land, not even an island! It's all sea as far as the eye can see!

That is the Inaccessible Ocean. This area, located in the South Pacific Ocean, is officially called the Inaccessible Ocean. Point Nemo is the center of this sea area. It was discovered by Canadian Croatian surveying engineer Hervoje Lucatella in 1992. Point Nemo is named after the character Captain Nemo in the French novel "Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea", and the word "Nemo" comes from the Latin "Nemo", which literally means "no one".

Point Nemo is located in the fault zone between two continental tectonic plates, and geological activities are extremely frequent. In addition, the South Pacific circulation just avoids this sea area, thus blocking the inflow of nutrient-rich and low-temperature external seawater. The long distance between the landmass and the local area also means that the point lacks organic matter washed into the sea from the land, and there is no way to form marine snow to maintain the deep-sea ecosystem. These factors make the marine environment around Point Nemo insufficient to support a large number of organisms, but some submarine bacteria can survive on deep-sea hydrothermal vents in the nearby East Pacific Rise. Therefore, this is almost a silent dead sea, known as the loneliest point in the world.

Point Nemo attracted public attention in 1997. At that time, scientists first detected a mysterious strange sound in the waters near Point Nemo. Its intensity even exceeded the sound limit that the blue whale, the largest animal in the world, can make. As soon as this news came out, it immediately caused a huge sensation in the scientific community. In order to find out the truth, many scientists formed a team to investigate. At first, people thought that the sound was made by an ocean-going ship, but later after screening, it was found that no ship passed near Point Nemo that day.

Could it be that there are still unknown sea monsters in the sea area of ​​Point Nemo? This sea monster is even bigger than the blue whale. After all, humans have only explored 5% of the ocean area, and humans have just begun to explore the ocean. This sea monster is at least 50 meters long, equivalent to two adult blue whales. It can send such a strong vibration signal. Later, scientists conducted multiple explorations and studies, but still found nothing. This incident gradually faded out of people's sight. In 2008, an earthquake occurred in the Antarctic ice sheet, and scientists used sonar to monitor a frequency that was very similar to that of 10 years ago. From this, they inferred that the ice quake caused by the breaking and melting of the iceberg was the main cause of the strange sound of Point Nemo. This matter has come to a conclusion.

They are going to reach Bouvet Island and happen to pass through this sea area.

This journey is very boring. Looking at the past, all the scenery is the same, without any change.

It is said that this place was once very prosperous. When the mountain copper trade existed, the Kingdom of Cordax once controlled this place. Because of the mountain copper trade, Atlanteans from all over the world built homes and cities here.

At one point, the Kingdom of Kodax even thought about trading the territory here from other kingdoms and establishing it as a new territory.

Unfortunately, with the pollution of mountain copper and the impact of the subsequent war.

All the underwater residents here moved away, and after thousands of years. No underwater residents are willing to return here.

First, without the mountain copper trade, this sea area has become a real deserted sea area. Who would come here to suffer for no reason?

Second, because of the impact of the past, this place was once regarded as an ominous place.

So there is not even an underwater current here... There is no "highway" in the place. Except for those travelers who want to experience the primitive style, no one will deliberately set foot here.

But when they came to the vicinity of Bouvet Island.

Suddenly felt a heat current.

Bouvet Island is close to the Antarctic Circle, and the sea water here is still very cold. How can there be a heat current?

Before Kai understood what was going on, Arthur patted his shoulder and asked him to float up.

When Kai floated out of the sea, he saw a column of smoke rising straight into the sky!

"Is the volcano erupting?"

Bouve Island is a volcanic island, but the volcanic activity here stopped a long time ago. Even if it is going to erupt, it won't be such a coincidence, right?

But if it really erupts, it's nothing strange.

After all, the seabed of the entire Pacific Ocean is a huge geological plate, called the Pacific Plate. A deep trench will be formed at the seam between the Pacific Plate and the Continental Plate. This is a V-shaped groove formed by the Pacific Plate diving down under the Continental Plate. In the east, the Pacific Plate is squeezed by the American Plate and moves westward; in the east, the Pacific Plate is squeezed by the Asian Continental Plate and moves westward.

Bouve Island is between the Pacific Plate and the Antarctic Plate. The Pacific Plate is very active, so it's not uncommon for a volcanic eruption.

"Wait!"

Arthur was already impatient because his father was kidnapped. Now he encountered a volcanic eruption, so he was more worried about his father. Seeing the smoke coming out of Bouvet Island in the distance, he rushed up without thinking.

As a result, he was stopped by Kai before he swam out two meters.

Kai stretched out his hand and caught the wisps of ashes floating down from the sky.

The sky around Bouvet Island was gray. After the smoke columns flying from the island rose to the sky, they would fall down after the heat dissipated. Just like snow.

Kai crushed the ashes in his hand.

Then he quickly threw them away.

"It's the ashes of burning mountain copper!"

Kai's face changed drastically.

This thing is poisonous!

Arthur couldn't help it after hearing this.

He drew a white line on the sea and quickly approached the island.

Kai shook his head and ignored him. Instead, he plunged into the sea and approached the island from another direction.

...

Arthur did not hide his figure this time, so his movements were quickly discovered by the enemies on the island.

"Our friends are here." Black Manta raised his head and looked at Om standing aside.

Om's originally dead eyes suddenly became energetic.

Black Manta chuckled. Seeing Om like this, Black Manta felt much better.

Speaking of which, since he got the Dark Trident, Black Manta's heart has been filled with all kinds of negative emotions... Before, his negative emotions were about to explode, but after getting the Dark Trident, Black Manta could not feel any emotions other than negative emotions.

He could not taste delicious food, and eating any food was like chewing wax and tasteless to him. He could feel the taste of food, but these things could not provide any feeling that could stimulate his nerves.

Fortunately, Black Manta soon discovered that food was not a necessity for him. As long as he still held the Dark Trident, the power would continue to replenish his body.

So he gave up eating.

The same is true for alcohol.

He could not feel the stimulation of alcohol, let alone get drunk.

His physical desires had been reduced to the level of a dead person. He could not feel the heat, the light, and the breeze blowing through his body, and he could not feel the temperature.

The negative emotions surging in his heart can make him feel that he is still alive!

Seeing Orm's emotions provoked by hatred, Black Manta felt a burst of joy in his heart, which made Black Manta feel very comfortable.

"Go, Orm. I generously grant you the power of revenge, do whatever you want!" After Orm received the order, he strode away. After being controlled by Black Manta, his heart was full of despair. He clearly resisted obeying the orders of this slave species in his heart, but his body and soul could not resist... This is an unspeakable despair. In this despair, only revenge on his brother, the damn Arthur, can make him feel that he is still alive. So even if it was Black Manta's order, he did not hesitate and executed it with great enthusiasm!

Black Manta himself was a little surprised at his generosity.

After all, Black Manta has always regarded Arthur as an enemy that he wants to get rid of as soon as possible. Many of the things he does are ultimately for revenge against Arthur. Before this, he originally thought that after Arthur came, he would personally kill Arthur and complete his revenge.

But when the time came, he found that he didn't care about Arthur at all!

But Black Manta soon figured it out.

He used to be too narrow-minded. He only had Arthur and hatred in his eyes, and had no pursuit!

But now it's different. He will soon dominate the world. In comparison, what does Arthur's little hatred count for?

Black Manta, who figured it out, turned his attention to the volcano.

This is the beginning of his dream.

The ancient technology he excavated from the Antarctic glacier with Orm is indeed something. Not only is it powerful, but it is also tough and durable. It is hard to imagine that this level of technology is a product of thousands of years ago.

It's not that Black Manta has never used Atlantis technology. He has also modified it himself. The Black Manta armor he is wearing now is modified based on the technological products of the Atlanteans.

But to be honest, it's a lot of fancy, but the effect is just like that.

After all, he is still no match for Arthur even though he is wearing a full set of armor.

On the contrary, he was more fascinated by the power of this ancient technological product.

The only drawback was that it consumed too much ‘oil’.

So he had to purify more mountain copper, and the best way to purify mountain copper was to calcine it at high temperature!

And this volcano was undoubtedly the best place to process it.
